Sir Patrick Stewart, a renowned British actor celebrated for his roles in film and theater, died at his home in Los Angeles on October 28, following a "brief and poignant journey" with Alzheimer’s disease and Lewy body dementia. The Society of London Theatre announced that theaters across London's West End will dim their lights for two minutes starting at 7pm on Tuesday, November 3, to honor the actor whose career spanned seven decades. Stewart was knighted in 2010 for services to drama and won multiple awards, including Olivier Awards for his performances in Antony and Cleopatra (1979) and Hamlet (2009). Tributes have come from fellow actors like Sir Ian McKellen, who described Stewart as a proud Yorkshireman whose dedication made him "a man to rely on, to admire and love."
